    Better in what way?

    I like them both, but I eat more peanut butter because it's cheaper.

    Almond butter is better for you (from what I have heard) but peanuts, which is a legume not actually a nut, has a bunch of health benefits as well ...

    Neither is "better" for you. Almonds are nuts and peanuts are legumes, but they are both yummy and have similar nutritional benefits. I love both but prefer peanut butter.

    i like them both, but definitely favor almond butter. unfortunately my wallet doesn't, as it's about twice the price of PB.

    Both are fine. Almond butter might be better for you from a long term health perspective.

    I wondered this too, but if you compare nutrition labels they're pretty similar.

    Almond butter is strangely addicting. Maranatha maple. Just do it.
